  No More Suzy Qs 4-Me - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By Big Mel - September 21 - 11:00 am

  Personally, I like the automobile as a whole. Its fun to drive and has a lot of drive appeal. The only set back I truly have is trying to find parts (since I am somewhat a "do-it-yourselfer"); and even at best it seems to be difficult for auto shops to find the necessary parts (like air filters). Other than that its a great car, fun to drive and all in all I havent had any serious problems out of this car. Ill say on a scale from one to ten Ill give it an eight.

  Suzukis answer to the Toyota Camry - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By ivan g. - June 13 - 12:50 am

  The Verona is a great come up for Suzuki. They needed this car a long time ago. The features that comes with it are great. Also, this car has great handling. Test drive it and you will love it. $20,000 for a brand new luxury car is straight.

  Verona experience - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By verona buyer - January 29 - 2:30 am

  This vehicle is better than all the reviews I have read about. The handling does not seem sloppy and my car has side impact bags in the front seats. I love the interior, especially the casette player and the audio controls on the steering wheel. The headroom is good and the seats are comfortable. I like this car. Those are the pluses, now for the minuses. The windshield wipers dont seem to have a fast speed and the headlights are weak.

  Driving a Death Trap - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By pegasus2017 - May 18 - 10:39 pm

  The car bucks and sputters and stalls when Im not giving it enough gas. The problem is the Throttle Body which becomes contaminated with coolant and cant regulate the cars idle. Its been replaced 3 times, but they havent found where the coolant is leaking, so it happens repeatedly. A rep from California was involved, and oversaw the last repair, which lasted 7 months, and then it started again. This time they washed their hands of me, and my dealer told me they cant do anymore. Ill never buy Suzuki again. My little boy has Cancer and we have to drive an hour each way for chemo every week. I have to drive with one foot on the gas and one on the brake. This cars a death trap.

  My Verona I love you but. - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By Andy Cloutier - November 1 - 10:40 am

  We liked what we saw, the style was very attractive, The 20" wheels look real racy and it has disc brakes all around, wow. I like the ABS and air pressure check from the dash. The 6 cylinder engine is very smooth. The pneumatic hood lifters are a plus, no need to raise the hood bar. The automatic shifter very smooth. The interior wood applique and chrome trim very are attractive. The leather intrerior, heated seats and heated outdoor mirrors are a luxury you wouldnt expect from a car this price. BUT, its gas mileage is not impressive. I am only getting 15 MPG on average. My car wobbles too much on windy days and the transmission is a little clunky when shifting, It is not a perfect world, we love it and we would give it a B+ all in all, the Verona is a nice city car.

  Loved Car @ 1st, Now Suffering Many Issues!!! - 2005 Suzuki Verona
  By lml215 - June 23 - 2:18 pm

  We loved this car @ 1st. Weve had it 3 yrs. Its an 05 we bought in 07. Shortly after purchasing the back bumper was hit in a parking lot. Instead of only bending the bumper, a 2 1/2 ft. long piece of paint peeled off and fell. The check engine light comes on frequently & took it to the shop the first couple of times, to find out that "nothing was wrong". It still comes on and goes off all the time. A month ago it started jerking while driving, at random times. Sometimes within 5 mins, sometimes we drive all day before it happens, sometimes it wont at all. Now the key wont turn in the ignition 75% of time. After trying several times it finally will. Is this happening to anyone else???

  Would be even better if it offered better fuel economy and more speed.
